Uvalde Police Chief Resigns Amid Robb Elementary School Shooting Investigation

TL;DR Summary
Uvalde Police Chief Daniel Rodriguez resigned just before a city council meeting to discuss a report clearing local officers of wrongdoing in the Robb Elementary School shooting, which occurred while he was on vacation. The report found that police acted in good faith but did not follow active shooter protocol, taking 77 minutes to kill the gunman. Rodriguez did not give a reason for his resignation, and the council will need more time to assess the report. Assistant Chief of Police Homer Delgado will serve as Interim Chief of Police while a replacement is sought.
